Argentine historian claims that Josef Mengele created twin town in BrazilJosef Mengele is responsible for the high number of twins in a small Brazilian town, a historian claims. Mengele`s task was to discover by what method of genetic oddity twins were produced, to step-up the Aryan birthrate. Scientists have failed to discover why as many as 20% of pregnancies in a small town have resulted in twins, most blond haired and blue eyed. Residents of Candido Godoi claim that Josef Mengele made visits there in the 1960s, offering medical treatment to the women. In "Mengele: the Angel of Death in South America" Jorge Camarasa, an expert in the Nazi flight to South America, has pieced together the Nazi doctor`s later years.(telegraph.co.uk)

Evil and medicine: Why we must remember Nazi physician Dr Josef MengeleAuschwitz survivor Sabine Korbman had a secret that she kept from even her only son. In 1944 she was picked for for her Aryan-looks and language skills to account Nazi experiments in Josef Mengele`s lab, Barrack 10.

Now Melbourne`s Jewish Holocaust Centre, which Sabine`s son Bernard heads, is hosting an exhibition on Nazi medicine.

Spy Rafi Eitan admits Mossad allowed "Angel of Death" Josef Mengele to escapeA former Israeli spy explains how a Mossad operation to seize Josef Mengele in Argentina in 1960 had to be canceled so they could focus on Adolf Eichmann, one of the architects of the Holocaust. But by the time agents went back to look for him, Mengele had escaped from Argentina. He died, without ever coming to trial, in Brazil in 1979. Rafi Eitan, who ran the Eichmann operation for Mossad, has shed new light on the affair. Eitan said the publicity of the Eichmann arrest alerted Mengele allowing him to escape - but other sources suggest Mengele left Argentina weeks before the Eichmann arrest. That does not quite match with Eitan`s account.(telegraph.co.uk)

Which Nazis fled to South America - and why?ODESSA (Organization of Former SS Members) choose South America because many Germans began to immigrate there since the mid-19th century and Germany had long ties with the power structures in these countries - Prussian military officers trained the Chilean army in the early 1900s. During WWII, Argentina declared its neutrality but continued to trade with the fascist regimes. Allegedly, President General Juan Peron sold 10,000 blank passports to ODESSA. Body of Joseph Mengele is said to have been identified on June 6, 1985, but some have doubted this, since posing dead was a ploy often used by fleeing Nazis, as in the case of high ranking SS officer Walter Rauff.(ohmynews)
